DOVER — Lucy’s Art Emporium will host a retrospective show featuring artwork by many of the artists who have shown at the gallery over the past four years. Lucy’s will be closing at the end of February.

Owner Daisy Adams Ellard will be transitioning her business to an online one for the next few years as she takes care of her infant daughter. Adams Ellard plans to focus on her several etsy shops and says Lucy’s will have a presence at local craft fairs.

The retrospective show includes work in a variety of media by Lucy’s regulars. Gretchen Hatfield has created a series of acrylic paintings on birchbark. Dover printmaker, Laura Utley will show her bold foam plate monoprints. They are joined by Caryn Lynn Duncan, Beth Newkirk, Larry Reynolds, Roseann Meserve, Kathi Smith, Laura Tuininga, Susan Schwake, Adams Ellard and her husband, painter Nick Ellard.

Join the artists at Lucy’s for a celebratory evening during Dover Art Walk, Friday, Feb. 7, 5:30-7:30 p.m. Refreshments will be served at 303 Central Ave in Dover, across from City Hall.
